Pain de mie

Chris, being the bread expert extraordinaire, made this pain de mie using a slight variation of the recipe from The Bread Bible by Rose Levy Beranbaum. It’s pretty much the best bread ever. It’s like a bread that verges on tasting like brioche while still being savoury. It has an amazing texture. It smells like croissants (i.e. awesome butteriness) when you toast it. It has… really sharp right-angle edges from being baked in a special sealed pan (you know you want geometric bread). It is, quite simply, the emperor of breads.
